Someone Else? (Full Band Version) Lyrics

Artist: Queensryche
Album: Greatest Hits

When I fell from grace I never realizedHow deep the flood was around meA man whose life was toil was like a kettle left to boilAnd the water left these scars on me

The chains I wore were mine, dragging me towards my fatePlanned for me long ago

I played by all their rules, went to their right schools

Who was I to question?

They used to say I was nowhere manHeading down was my destinyBut yesterday I swear that wasSomeone Else not me

Here I stand at the crossroad's edgeAfraid to reach out for eternityOne step when I look downI see someone else, not me

I know now who I am, if only for awhileI recognize the changesI feel like I did, before the magic wore thinAnd the baptism of stains began

Sacrifice, the always say... is a sign of nobilityBut where does one draw the line in the face of injury?I'm just trying to understand

Standing here at the crossroad's edgeLooking down at what I used to beA drowning man, trying to stay afloatHeavy with the past, but somehow keeping hopeThat there's something more that is seenBut it's somewhere out of reach

So I keep looking backLooking back and I see someone else

All my life they said I was going downBut I'm still standing stronger proud

And today I know, there's so much more I can beI think I finally understand

From where I stand at the crossroad's edgeThere's a path leading out to seaAnd from somewhere deep in my mindSirens sing out loud, songs of doubt, as only they know howBut one glance back reminds and I seeSomeone Else, not me.

I keep looking back at Someone Else... me?

by Jennifer Overkamp on 2/27/2009 6:07pmQueensryche is still one of the best most progressive bands out there. This song is by far one of the very best. It shows the vocal range Tate still holds and is one of the many reasons this group still has a very strong following.
